I’m impressed that you had X-ray diffraction equipment in your high school chemistry lab. If not, then I’m pretty sure you were making some circular assumptions. The number was a purely theoretical unknown quantity to Avogadro himself, based only on the assumption that a fixed volume of gas should contain the same number of ‘molecules’ regardless of its composition. Oh and then there’s history. Wow, you honestly believe that just because you were taught the trendy woke parts of history that you got the whole story. I’ll pick an innocuous example. How much do you know about the Salem witch trials, and how much of that was taught from primary source evidence?
